The Delaware County News an
nounces that hereafter, or for a time at
least, it will appear but once a week.
The experience of the News as a tri
weekly is but3 another exemplification
of of the old adage: "We learn by what
we suffer.''
$& They are having a typical South
American revolution down at Panama,
A few hundred of Vncle Sam's blue
jackets have been landed to proitei the
railroad across the isthmus, and by so
doing deprive foreign powers of an ex
cuse to violate the Monroe Doctrine.
The nations of Europe are hurrying
war vessels to the scene of disturbance,
and might not be amiss for the "pow
ers that be" to send the Oregon down
there to report on the condition of the
hat crop. The Oregon is a great peace
maker.
The Great Western's Great Bridge.'
nThe Great Western's sun eys are com
plete for a great bridge or viaduct
acrOBB the Des Moines river at Fort
Dodge. The structure when completed
will be 2,585 in length and the proposed
height is 131 feet above the surface of
the river. In addition to the river
crossing the viaduct will, cross two lines
of railways and four well traveled high
ways. Although not quite so large as
the viaduct recently constructed at
iioone, the one which will be built
at Fort Dodge will ue counted one
of^the largest viaducts in the country.

with a "breach „f tin.1 peace, unlaw

The military force, accompanied by
Judge Hall and other civil oliicers,
went to within a quarter of a mile of
the camp, and there the judge and
sheriff and deputies took conveyances
for the camp. On arriving at the
camp it was found that all the men
save twenty-five or thirty, had left

ammunition. All who were present
Judge Hall ordered at once arrested.
The four large tents were soon torn

Nortonville, where they were packed

for that purpose. When the time
came to remove the prisoners to the

that the officers would have to move

men up and shouldered him as though
he were a sack of Hour. The ollicer

New York, Xov. 22.—Dr. Charles F.!
MacDonald has been awarded $25,000
a year by .lustice Clarke in the su
preme court for the proper mainten
ance and care of .Mrs. Ida M. Flagler,
who has for a considerable period been
a patient in the doctor's sanitarium,
lie was allowed $o,(ii)0 for his sorv
ices as committee of .Mrs. Flagler's
person.
This was done u|Kn the recommen
dation of IH\ .MacDonald that Mrs.
Flagler should be placed in a position
in which/ in accordance with her in
come and the manner in which she
was accustomed to live, she could
maintain her own establishment. Mrs.
Flagler was until recently the wife
of Henry M. Flagler.
Justice Clarke, upon the application
of Charles F. Shuiirdes, Stephen
Shourdes and Mrs. Mattle A. Johnson,
the two brothers and sister of Mrs.
Flagler, allowed them *-1,000 a year
each to be paid them out of her in
'eoine. The reason given for making
this allowance is that Mrs. Flagler was
in the habit of making valuable pres
ents to her brothers and sister, who
are not in nllluent circumstances, and
that they, to whom the estate will re
ert upon Mrs. Flagler's death, are in
eed of an allowance from her estate.

St. Paul, Xov. 22.—Governor Van

ors of all states having laws similar
to those of Minnesota, prohibiting the
onsolidatlon of parallel and compet
ing linesof railroad,»to join in a united
ellort to defeat the Great .Xortliern

These states include North Dakota,
Montana, Washington aud Idaho.
Xo word in regard to injunction pro

session of the legislature is now re
arded.as a certainty by most of the
state officials and members, as well as
by politicians generally who have vis
ited the city.
With nothing but the report of the
tax commission to consider, there Is a
question as to whether the extra .ses
sion would be called, but If, as many
lawyers contend, the present laws are
inadequate to deal with the railroad
problem, there will be no doubt about
an extra session. It may even be
called much earlier than the first of
'Ybruary, the date when It was due
to -meet for consideration of the tax
commission report.
